#7  I went to my local shop tonight for a pack of cigarettes. It's on a strip of 20 family owned restaurants, barber shops, and convenience stores. The shop was open - the owner has a tracheotomy and a tube in his throat, so apparently he has already weathered something quite severe and is not worried about this virus. His was the only shop open, and I only saw 1 car in motion, in a city of 30,000,000. It looks like CQ is being treated as the next front.

#3  From my reading on the Civil War, troops from major cities were less likely to die from disease than farm boys; continual exposure to pathogens made the city dwellers more resistant in general. Don't think this holds true for a brand new disease, but if so, balance of power could go bluish.
